hi, its sounds interesting but idk what its used for, simply a moisturizer?

 

[Johnnie]

Lemon is 'ok' for the skin but it's extremely acidic and can irritate the skin. I don't agree with leaving it on but do rinse it off.

As for the 'silky leg' tip. It didn't make sense because you have to wash it off and then add lotion? Weird!

I should try the 'conditioner' tip. Kind of grosses me out though but I'll see if it works.

Thank you Sarah!

What are the recipes good for? whitening the skin, and making it smoother?...

Also, i have this recipe as well, that is for evening skin tone, it says that you have to dry out the skin of an orange, blend it to make some powder with it and mix it with milk. Should i mix it with regular milk or powder milk? What do you think? also, if you have any recipes for evening skin tone, it would be great if you could share as well /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

[EYE]

can anyone tell me some natural mask and cream for eye?

 

[magosienne]

It depends on what you're searchign for, but clay works well as a mask (usually a tablespoon is enough for your face and neck, you just mix it with a bit of water). For an eyecream, i am not of much help, i use my moisturizer :laughing:

I find the one for clogged pores really useful. How about sugar instead for the salt scrub?

 

[Asha*]

Sugar is probably better than salt, because salt can dry out your skin.

For facial scrub i use some baking soda mixed with a bit of water, it's great.

Awesome! I always have my eye out for cheap & eco-friendly skin care. I will be trying the grape wrinkle treatment tonight (& every night until they are gone!)

Thanks!

CITRUS FRESHNER
2 cups boiling water
1 vitamin C (a preservative)
Lemon peel (zest) from 2 lemons
Dissolve the vitamin in water. In a glass bowl put the lemon zest and pour the water over them. Let it sit over night. Remove the zest and put in a spray bottle. You can use any type of citrus peel.

BLEMISHED SKIN MASK
1 Tomato, ripe, chopped
1 tsp Lemon juice
1 T Instant style oatmeal or old-fashioned rolled oats
Blend everything until just combined. Apply to skin, making sure the mixture is thick enough to stay on blemished areas: cheeks, forehead, or chin. If necessary, add a bit more oatmeal to thicken the mask. Leave it on for 10 minutes, then scrub it off with a clean washcloth dipped in warm water.
